Check for New Records?

What is the best way to check for new records in the database. I have a
form in a multi-user environment connected to an access database but I need
to update the information onscreen as it is inserted or at a regular
interval. Should I just put a timer and check every so often or is there a
way to detect new records and then reload the dataset? Thanks

Are the new records being created by your program AND the Database users
using access ?

Clients are reading the database and the records are created by another
application.

I have a PHP generated page which displays X many records. Each record has a checkbox preceding it. The user checks several checkboxes, and hits a delete button. All the corresponding records will be deleted. But I'm running into difficulty... Right now the NAME property of each check box is the primary key of the corresponding record. Hence if I know which checkboxes are checked, I simply use DELETE using the NAME value.
